Karsten Baptism Weekend - Part 2

The baptism was after the 4:30pm mass, as usual Karsten did a great job during Church. He had a bottle and was napping until Shannon and I changed him into his baptism outfit. Wearing the outfit to church just seemed like asking for spitup or a diaper failure to happen before the baptism.

We lucked out and were the only baptism that evening so we had the church to ourselves. Father Pflumm did the baptism - it was very nice. Karsten decided he had been quiet long enough and cried for a while during his baptism, except when water was poured on his head, he seemed to enjoy that part.

After baptism, Chuck and Shannon hosted a BBQ at their house. It was nice to have everyone together and get a chance to chat with everyone and for everyone to spend some time with Karsten.

I'm realizing I should have posted these as the bigger size....sorry bout that.

Not sure what I found so funny in this picture, but I love how Karsten is looking at Scott.
